In it, Marin Independent Journal reports that:

A private suburban Philadelphia swim club accused of racism after it canceled the memberships of dozens of minority children says it will seek a meeting to work out an agreement for the kids to return.

The REAL reason was because the club wasn't prepared to handle the number of children the daycare came with. Since there was a large number of kids, it got in the way of paying members trying to use the pool.

They have "canceled" other contracts with a large group of kids because of the same reason.

Some just insist on making it that way.

Strange Fruit I guess. Who are you kidding, it is documented! Dang, do you live in DaNile, or what?

<quoted text>Hey, this ain't the Rio Grande. Jesse and Al are on their way to protect their voting boons (grandmas), at the behest of President Change.

Good! Because if you think racism doesn't exist in the U.S.(or should I say, PA) anymore, you live in a cave smart a**.(You're not going to start with the Hispanic commnets are you? Can you stay focused or do you have your intelligence at the same level of Palin?)

The club knew, when the contract was signed, how many children would be attending. All of a sudden, they didn't realize? Yeah, right.

This may sound off topic to many people. but I have to tell you something that's bothering me for awhile. Watching Mr Obama walking hand in hand with his older daughter may me uncomfortable. if anything he should be walking hand in hand with his wife...! Please thank you very much...!

You have issues. I'm 49 years old and if my father were alive today, I'd hold his hand forever.

Well Angelina, I suppose you find it bothersome when any parent holds their child's hand, correct?

I suppose they should just let their children go unsupervised. You know, let them run across the street and in parking lots. Yes, that certainly seems like a good idea doesn't it?
